Misc. Author Info       : Canadian university student with too much time on
                          his academically slothful hands.

Description             : A collection of six deathmatch-only levels, ranging
                          from tiny and annoying to large and tedious.

Additional Credits to   : Testing on MAP02 by Guyang "arioch" Mao, Jonathan

                          to blame them for any playability issues. The other
                          maps weren't tested. 0h gn0s! Also, a shout out to

                          is going to play these levels anyway? Keep to your

* Level Information *

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
MAP01: Doom Gate

A direct conversion of the Q3DM1 in Quake III: Arena. This level was
originally released on August 3, 2001, however this version fixes a couple
visuals.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
MAP02: (Can You Feel It) Intensify

The layout and architecture is loosely based on an add-on Q3A map, DVD3DM1
by David Davidson. The jump-pads have issues at times when players attempt
to strafe-run while ascending. So stop. Stop trying to control everything
and just let go! LET GO!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
MAP03: Gargantua

A large level that won't play well unless there's more than 4 players. This
is also the only map to contain the BFG9000, so piss off people with that
new-found ability as much as possible. If you don't wish to use it then you
can just ignore the far west room.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
MAP04: Bruised Broken Beaten

This was originally built for Crucified Dreams using Iikka Keränen's base
texture set. I wasn't happy with the singular brown tone of the whole map
so I switched to the Darkening set. The layout is rather simplistic and can
lead to rocket spamming from irritating opponents but a SSG can easily
solve such belligerency.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
MAP05: Easy Mark

An oval with a pit in the middle. This map will likely become a vapid
existence of 3D space after a couple rounds but that is irrelevant to my
empire. To the maze of death with you!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
MAP06: It Doesn't Take a Cook to Know It Tastes Like Shit

I tried an experiment using four parallel corridors and I think it failed
but I'm trying to clear out my hard drive so this unplayable mostrosity now
resides in your abode.
